5 under the radar Airbnb, STR spots?

[Mark Miles]

Hi. I'm researching some spots for vacation rentals, and I've come across 5 areas that I'm interested in learning more about. I'm wondering if anyone is having any success with STR, VRBO, Airbnb, etc in any of these 5 areas?

1) Guntersville Lake / Tennessee River area in Alabama (Guntersville, Scottsboro, Stevenson area): looks like it might attract a lot of folks from all over Alabama, Tennessee and Georgia (Birmingham, Huntsville, Decatur, Chattanooga, and maybe also Atlanta and Nashville)

2) The rural areas outside of Asheville, North Carolina: specifically Old Fort, Mill Spring, Marion, Hendersonville, Pisgah area, Nantahala area: looks like it might attract folks from North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and possibly Tennessee (Charlotte, Spartanburg, Greenville, Rock Hill, Winston-Salem, and possibly Atlanta and Knoxville)

3) Northwest South Carolina (Savannah River, Lake Hartwell, Lake Keowee, Lake Jocassee area; bordering on Nantahala & Chattahoochee Forests): looks like it might attract folks from South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia (Greenville, Spartanburg, Clemson, Atlanta, Asheville, Charlotte, maybe Chattanooga & Knoxville)

4) Lake Anna northwest of Richmond, Virginia: looks like it might attract folks from all over Virginia (esp Richmond, Petersburg, Charlottesville, Harrisonburg, Culpeper, Fredericksburg, and maybe Washington DC or Virginia Beach / Norfolk / Hampton)

5) Front Royal / Winchester in northwest Virginia: near Shenandoah / Skyline Drive / Blue Ridge Mountains. Looks like it might attract folks from all over Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania Delaware and DC (Morgantown, Hagerstown, Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, Rockville, Alexandria, Baltimore)
